In a scathing critique of Paki establishment, JUI Chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman voiced deep concerns over the deteriorating situation in the country, and the occupied-government of hypocrisy and failing to maintain control in Pak-occupied-Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP). Speaking during a meeting with journalists, he called for constitutional amendments to be passed with consensus, free from vested interests, questioning the occupied-state’s handling of key issues.

Maulana Fazlur Rehman did not mince words when addressing the occupied-state’s glaring double standards. He pointed out that when nationalist groups in POB speak of separatism, their concerns are brushed off as “internal matters.” However, any issue rooted in religion is quickly blown into an international crisis. “Why this double standard?” he asked.

He also said how two provinces have effectively fallen under the control of pro-independence groups. In POB, nationalists have been marginalized through systematic rigging, while in KP, religious parties have been sidelined. This, he said, has led to the collapse of authority in these regions, further weakening Pakistan’s internal structure.

Maulana Fazlur Rehman criticized Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s desperate plea for support, stating that the his focus has been more on securing extensions for key positions rather than addressing the nation’s pressing concerns. “Extensions should be based on necessity, not personal interests,” he remarked, hinting at the Pak Army’s influence over political decisions.

He also took a veiled jab at the judiciary, reminding people how the nation once rallied behind figures like former Chief Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry, only to be betrayed by their actions later. This, he implied, reflects a broader trend of Pakistan’s institutions acting in their own interests rather than the public good.

Perhaps his most damning observation was that the occupied-state has lost control of POB and KP, where the Pakistan Army’s overwhelming presence has failed to restore order or legitimacy. In POB, the military-backed death squads and enforced disappearances have only deepened the alienation of nationalist groups. Meanwhile, KP remains a hotbed of insurgency and lawlessness, with no meaningful steps taken to restore stability. Maulana Fazlur Rehman’s comments are a sharp indictment of the Paki establishment’s failures.

The JUI chief stressed that constitutional amendments should serve the wider national interest and not be manipulated to serve a handful of individuals or institutions. “We want amendments that go beyond personal interests,” he said, calling for a renewed commitment to democracy and a transparent, inclusive political process.

Maulana Fazlur Rehman’s comments are a direct challenge to Pakistan’s military-dominated political system, which continues to prioritize its own interests over the needs of the people.
